Hello, this is my first time at writing a guide so please excuse any errors. I decide to write this guide because alot of people seem to be asking how they can convert there DiVX (avi) movies into a SVCD so they can watch on there DVD Player. This guide will go through the entire process I used to put the movie "Spider-man" onto a 2 disc SVCD.

Based on my previous guide using srt2sup, which was very popular, I updated it to describe my own tool, SubtitleCreator, which allows you to do many of the things that srt2sup can, but is open source, has advanced synchronization features, reads *.sub files as well, and uses the original IFO file for the color palette. Give it a go, and let me know what you think of it.

This guide explains how to start with VCDEasy. With this guide, you will create a very simple VideoCD but it will allow you to learn easily about the main VideoCD features of your home DVD player (VCD, SVCD, video, ability to display picture or not,... ) and thus you will know if VCDEasy is useful for you or not.

This guide will describe how to convert an AVI,DivX,XviD video to a DVD with selectable subtitles using DVD2SVCD(AVI2DVD).

This guide will describe the basic steps to convert DV to DivX or XviD using free software. You must configure a lot of settings but you will have full control of everything and you can also add optional filters to reduce noise and such. If you want something easier I would recommend Dr. DivX.

There are already couple of verty good guides made by TheMatrixx and Paddington.
But certain program always produced errors for me and I couldn't make it work.
So I tried to find my own way to add a subtitle and I found it!
If one of the above guides work for you great, but if not, there is still hope.
This guide will let you add your own subtitle while keeping the menu structure and
it's also compatible with multi-pgc DVDs.
